Now, as the root user: make install && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/nettle-&nettle-version; && install -v -m644 nettle.html /usr/share/doc/nettle-&nettle-version; Installed Programs Installed Library Installed Directories nettle-hash, nettle-lfib-stream, pkcs1-conv, and sexp-conv libhogweed.a and libnettle.a /usr/include/nettle Short Descriptions nettle-hash calulates a hash value using a specified algorithm. nettle-hash nettle-lfib-stream outputs a sequence of pseudorandom (non-cryptographic) bytes, using Knuth's lagged fibonacci generator. The stream is useful for testing, but should not be used to generate cryptographic keys or anything else that needs real randomness. nettle-lfib-stream pkcs1-conv converts private and public RSA keys from PKCS #1 format to sexp format. pkcs1-conv sexp-conv converts an s-expression to a different encoding. sexp-conv
